Added a few more updates that went out after this thread went up.
Another round of site updates is upon us. Small tweaks, nothing major...
General
Comments
Users can once again upload images in their comments.
If you are under level 5, you are capped at 10 images uploaded.
There are no limits, but if you start using us as a personal image hosting service, your images will be deleted and you will be banned. Normal users don't need to worry about this.
Added a new call to action for logged-out users to come and join the community.
Web App
Updated the logo to use our site logo instead of Derpcorn for phone screens.
Editor
You can now highlight text and quickly make it bold, italicized, underlined, or linked.
The comment editor no longer loads on pages by default, instead, you now must click on "Join the conversation".
Mobile users, you get to tap.
When clicking this, the editor automatically gets selected.
Voting
Added tooltips to describe the upvote, downvote, and likes buttons.
Notifications
Clicking notifications now marks them as read like the old version of the website.
Profiles
Small tweaks to the about section, now only shows 6 Reps instead of all.
Tweaked the comment section styling.
Updated the tabs appearance to match our newer look.
Revamped the achievement UI.
Account Management
Fixed an issue that preventing you from choosing cosmetics.
Improved the overall user experience of choosing cosmetics.
Moved account connections to the new theme.
Misc
Added Discord link to site sidebar.
Added Pro link to site sidebar.
Note that Out of Games Premium is now Out of Games PRO.
Fixed an issue with the display of email fields on the site.
Ads
Logged-in users will no longer see the bottom anchor ads.
This is a tough one because that ad slot is our best performing one, but it interferes with the ability to do modern bottom-of-the-page things too much on mobile.
We haven't show anchor ads to logged-in desktop users for years.
So yeah, create and account and join our community and you'll see one fewer advertisement.
Realms
Navigation
Realm navigation can now be clicked for the main navigation item (Like Cards for Hearthstone) as one would expect a good navigation to be able to do.
Headers on mobile now are more seamlessly integrated into the design.
Threads
Reworked the thread creation experience to work better on mobile and modernize it on desktop.
Redesigned the look of thread detail views to integrate better into the page and more closely match other content on the website.
Updated the Edit, Delete, and Move views to our modern interface.
Hearthstone
Made tweaks to the expansions navigation to bring it up to date and flow better.
The deck widget on mobile no longer overflows to the right of the website.
Also made the class icon smaller, it was taking up a lot of space.
